The word they meant to use is "carelessly". We would also have accepted "inattentively".

"Greedily" works too.

My org has a policy of requesting us to use copilot as much as we can. Its also almost completely useless at my job, but its really good if i just write my functions and queries super sloppy and just get it to organize the text.

Burning down an acre of rainforest and charging the company so i don't have to press enter.

Why is AWS using Claude when they have their own AI solutions.

Weren't they deliberately encouraging tokenmaxxing?

They denying pee breaks so the tech dept can go 860% over budget.

Aren't menial coding tasks what it does best? God fucking damnit, I don't want to be stuck doing the boring shit while Claude gets all the fun stuff.

A taste of their own medicine

I just finished reading Starship Troopers and cooking bacon only brings one thing to mind. But on topic that isn't a mistake.

Make companies fear implementation and soaring costs
